Apart from the hiccup in the 3rd Qtr, what does the performance mean? Did it mean that the offense is now on the road to becoming an offensive juggernaut and that the defense will continue to come up with timely takeaways or does it mean that we merely beat a team that we were supposed to beat.

It doesn't mean much aside from winning a game we were supposed to. There's still some tough games ahead. 4 of the next 6 games are on the road. It was good to see better production from the offense. Hopefully, the bye will give us a chance to get a little bit healthy.

I don't care how much the press praises them; I don't read anything into it. They won against a team with a poor rush defense and whose safeties (Polamalu) are aging.

It is nice to hit the break at 7-2 given the injury situation but there is still a very long way to go...more to grow together, more to overcome....and, then the challenges of the playoffs...so, it is important to not get too excited and keep all in perspective.

It was a win against a bottom tier team, but it was a win. There are problems on the D with all the injuries. Hopefully, Talib gets back in two weeks to solidify the DBs, the next men up will have had a little more time to pick things up and mesh. But the road ahead is tough - Carolina, Denver, Ravens and Dolphins will be difficult.
